Absolutely. My wife and I have always been fit, all that dancing has kept us slim and trim. Around Easter time last year the lady started to tire, quite quickly. At first she put it down to age, but then seeing me still active she sought advice. Her doctor sent her to a specialist and it was discovered that her heart rhythm was out of sync, which meant it wasn't getting enough oxygen into the blood stream. The result of that was, chronic fatigue, but, as the specialist explained, it could have lead to a stroke or heart failure.

She would need surgery. The surgeon performed an operation known as Atrial fibrillation. Check out the link, hopefully your problem isn't like that at all, but ignoring it is just about the worst thing to do. Take Diva's advice, see a doctor.
 
Atrial fibrillation is a heart condition where electrical signals run rampantly through the heart causing the heart to pump blood inefficiently. (Which can lead to tiredness, shortness of breath)
A surgical procedure known as cardiac ablation can be performed during which nodes in the heart can be disabled and unable to conduct electricity if it is determined that they are unhealthy pathways for electrical impulses.

A normal heart rhythm involves just 2 nodes to maintain normal effective pumping of blood.

I had the ablation performed on me and I worked with 2 young guys who also needed the procedure done.
